FYI the dosbox people hate the registry themself and dosbox doesn't add a thing for it.

First and foremost, the setup you get to after starting ALONE.EXE is in FRENCH!
Allthough i understand parts of it, enough to get through it, i can't start the game.
When i press Jeur (New Game i suppose) the DOSBox screen goes black and there is a little line blinking in the top left corner.

Ops, sorry for the extra post, but i didn't get the whole issue into the first one (i happened to send it before i was done..).

This stupid blinking thing goes on for a while and nothing happens, nothing at all!.
And i can't just start the file (and yes i'm using XP), if i do i get an error message:

16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem
C:\ALONE\ALONE.EXE
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.

And i then get to choose either 'Close' or 'Ignore', both exits me back to the desktop.

Thanks! :w00t: But even if THAT worked, i can't get any sound!
I noticed that the sound was turned off in the options menu so i turned on Sound FX (Music couldn't be turned on) but then the game ran so slow it almost stopped!
What can i do to fix this?
I can only run the game by simply starting ALONE.EXE, neither DOSBox nor VDMSound works.

WTF?

It's lagging..

How?

I remember playing this game in 1994-ish and it didn't lag even then. Now it's lagging...

Grr

I want to be eaten by that mysterious blue thing that breaks in through the window, and the thing that comes out of I believe the floor board (it might've been the closet)...

Why would it be lagging?

Dos-game running under XP... now there's a rarity. Try running it under DosBox and see if it still occurs
